I don't like the idea of Nick being a homophobe or anti-homosexual in any way.

I don't either, but I think they'll try it with him because they're too afraid to try it with a mainstay character. It's the least risky route to go while still having a character like that on the canvas, even though it's really out of character for Nick.

It makes me think Gabi will be pregnant because it sets up discord between Nick and Will, and it gives Nick motive to claim paternity sort of the same way Rafe did with Nicole's baby. It's kind of lazy, I think, if they go that route. I want Will to be hated for his personality, like every other character, not his orientation.
